Wine Details
Price:
$29.00 per bottle
Description:
We sourced cab franc from the Marshanne Vineyard near Oakland. This variety requires more heat than we get in Elkton. The vines are well farmed and carefully cropped. The fruit came in in beautiful condition on October 23. The wine was aged in 50% new French oak. The color is a very dark red and the aromas well up with violets, raspberries and a touch of woody oak so typical of this variety. The flavors are blackberry with black currants and the oak is well integrated and vanillin. This wine has some good tannin and structure, though with only 2 months of bottle age the wine is already rounding out which promises for good early and extended drinkablility. Good acid combines with ripe tannins for a long finish.
